Schott unveils new optical fiber for use in EDFA

摘要

Schott, the international technology company based in Germany, announces a new broadband erbium-doped fiber based on its newly developed compact oxide glass, which will provide up to 50 percent more bandwidth. With this new amplifier medium, Schott expands its successful product range of Erbium doped phosphate glasses for planar waveguide amplifiers. Furthermore, the fiber requires significantly less space, enabling more compact designs for amplifiers and telecom equipment.
